Geez.<br /><br />The country's heading for financial ruin, and the democrats was the biggest ruin possible so that nobody remembers what idealogy caused it.<br /><br />The republicans are worried about civility.<br /><br />They should differ from democrats in having ideas in their vituperation, is all.<br /><br />Nobody was more effective than R.

Have no other interests. <br /><br />What is the point?<br /><br />The GOP ticket (Santorum-Gingrich) is doing to be savagely defeated by Obama-Biden in 49 of 50 states.

The irony is that they will be defeated by 20 points in VA (they current home state).<br /><br />I have already bet $100 for Obama-Biden. I hope to cash in their victory.
